Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • socialistcoma charlotte (@socialistcoma) reported

    Role queue fixed some of the built in toxicity OverWatch had. It probably would have suffered the same problems valorant has now even if it had it

  • RrAsRiver River (@RrAsRiver) reported

    @CSGO I love csgo BUT valve don't give a **** about this game :) broken overwatch and VAC plus unbalanced game whenever it couldn't find enough player in server! With budget valve can spend on games it's EZ for them to track and solve this problem and this bother me.

  • AndyxDixon Andy Dixon (@AndyxDixon) reported

    @Kephrii yo I know you won't reply or see this but can you dm me? Trying to contact you is a last ditch effort in resolving an issue I've been having with streaming/ overwatch

  • strxcciatella stracci #17 🧡 (@strxcciatella) reported

    overwatch is actually ******* broken

  • niceliason_ Nic (@niceliason_) reported

    im not saying it's a complete fix to overwatch.. but giving every hero a cat girl skin would definitely be an improvement

  • Im_bashh Imbashh (@Im_bashh) reported

    @decimalleaf Sims 2 where it's at. Also overwatch has balance issues and blizzard kinda horrible

  • skylarbartz2 worthless (extremely sick even more and injured) (@skylarbartz2) reported

    //they should take out a few things and FIX OVERWATCH!!!!

  • AlanShinohara Alan "Shinohara" Garcia (@AlanShinohara) reported

    @ReyLechugo @DummblondGaming The map was a mix of maps from Overwatch, Team Fortress 2 and Valorant. Briefly, they told me that to avoid possible IP issues using their content on Fortnite, they would delete my map so no one else would ever play and that other maps would receive the same treatment.

  • PapayaP1anet papaya (@PapayaP1anet) reported

    In light of every cod game being *** or broken I’ve reverted back to overwatch

  • Sorezzzzzz sorez 🎯 (@Sorezzzzzz) reported

    @golddvstwoman Ah yeah that makes sense, i saw you were saying that some apps dont work/wont install, is this app exclusive at all? Do you have this issue with games other than Avengers, Overwatch, and Fortnite??

  • DGhouled SyphonOW (@DGhouled) reported

    Why is overwatch hated on so much I genuinely don't see a problem with it other than the dev team having some problems

  • MekaTitan MekaTitan (@MekaTitan) reported

    How to fix Overwatch: -Bring back GM stacking. (3-4 per team) -Rework Brig & Bap -Make the game Free-To-Play -Implement Aggressive Anti-Cheat System. -Show us monthly character updates/breakdowns for Overwatch 2 from now on.

    @Sabuuchi My nephew used to run around overwatch with my IGN but that problem took care of itself cuz he got good.

  • AoNoHasuArt αĸαrι ~ (@AoNoHasuArt) reported

    @ss_hage It's a complicated issue for that reason. Sometimes it's hard for me to draw him too, reading the news about the abuse. But I try to convince myself that the female team working with Overwatch has said that they haven't suffered (thankfully) that kind of mistreatment.😔

  • Sol_Diablo_ Sol Diablo🎮 (@Sol_Diablo_) reported

    @Jeanmarclouis79 Facts....or the whole Battlefront 2 travesty. Oh and don't forget OverWatch which started the whole loot box issue.

  • rogermalone7869 Roger (@rogermalone7869) reported

    @Crosimmer For the sims 3, Nraas master controller, error trap and overwatch, lazy duchess' smooth patch and mods that add new gameplay to the game.

  • Animewolfgamer Marcos Rojas (@Animewolfgamer) reported

    @BikerReaper0 Despite all its problems that still needs to be iron out. It is a legit fun game and honestly, I think this game should of have the budget overwatch has. At least then Evil mojo can push this game farther then what blizzard is dealing with their game.

  • starrytyler_ LG StarryTyler (@starrytyler_) reported

    Anyone having issues on ps4 loading online games? Tried overwatch and fortnite with no luck. Definitely not the internet bc it's working everywhere else

  • sad_kms iwtkms (@sad_kms) reported

    hypomania played overwatch for way too long today and talked to everyone in the games super up now, the crash is going to be real bad i can tell already

  • hobicorp Allie⁷ (@hobicorp) reported

    I don't understand how genshin lags so bad on a hot spot. Like if i was in co-op mode maybe but like it has input lag for no reason overwatch comp didn't lag this bad in driving though the smokies on a hotspot in the car.

  • EwanLivo69 caboose against kpop (@EwanLivo69) reported

    @ScoutTheTrooper Unfortunately this happens with loads of games, for example overwatch have had this problem since launch and have done nothing about it so people keep getting screwed over

  • socialistcoma charlotte (@socialistcoma) reported

    2017-2018 OverWatch peaked, it ended up being labeled as a toxic game. A lot of people know it as that even now. OverWatch had its fair share of issues, it would punish be really punishing to play with friends. Duos/trio queues were the most optimal if you played with people

  • lynnanguyen lynnard (@lynnanguyen) reported

    tell me how i get so stressed fighting monsters on stardew valley but i have no problem chasing a baby dva on overwatch for revenge

  • worththesinn Φ (@worththesinn) reported

    overwatch is not helping with my anger issues. being addicted is not helping too

  • BarnesGotNext BarnesGotNext (@BarnesGotNext) reported

    WHY DO NO CONSOLE OVERWATCH LEAGUES HAVE PHONE NUMBER NEEDED TO ENTER THE SERVER????? THAT WOULD LITERALLY SOLVE MOST OF THEIR ISSUES OF SMURFING LOL

  • sharkydario Dario Gacia (@sharkydario) reported

    @PVPX_ I wouldn’t stop playing. **** content, lack of fixing pursuing issues, and stagnant gameplay is what made me quit overwatch way after everyone quit. Apex should have a buffer so you hit 7200. Once you hit that you’re allowed -75rp before demotion.

  • icendsugar Jay Simping for Sukuna (@icendsugar) reported

    my main issue with overwatch esports is that i want a team to support but because they keep switching players so much and im not loyal to a ******* color scheme my heart just wont get invested anymore

  • socialistcoma charlotte (@socialistcoma) reported

    Sometimes it feels weird when you just have to take whatever people say in OverWatch without any proper follow up if they got in trouble

  • aehtay Taylor | aehtay (@aehtay) reported

    @BlizzardCS I haven’t been able to load up Vanguard or Overwatch on PC for over a week now without both games crashing, giving me an error, and then trying to update but not actually doing it (even tho they’re up to date) and then I have to restart my computer. Help plz

  • sengarx sengar (@sengarx) reported

    Called my internet provider… outage in my area. SICK. so I might stream I might not today 😭 depending on when it’s back. Was excited to play some overwatch
